Chapter 458 Restaurant Meeting

Chang'an East Street.

At the most prosperous and lively east-west street intersection in the city, there is a five-story building, which is the Liang Family Restaurant owned by Liang Ju, the richest man in the south.

The private rooms above the fourth floor are always closed to the public. The restaurant owner personally inspects them. It turns out that a few years ago, the general's wife was shot by an arrow outside. Later, it was discovered that the arrow was hidden in a high building and had a good position to shoot towards the heart. If there weren't someone around the lady who was not stupid enough, she would have been shot dead.

He compared himself to the observation deck on a high building in Chang'an, which had become a target for assassination. Liang Ju's businesses in Chang'an, above the third floor, would rather not make money than disclose them to the public.

The master family and the general's mansion share the same fate, and the shopkeeper is even more obedient and strict in keeping watch. Although the fourth and fifth floors are luxuriously decorated and quiet in the midst of noise, many wealthy people come here to admire their reputation. However, those who are not close to them will be kept below the stairs no matter how much money you have in your pocket.

A few days ago, the owner personally ordered that the fourth and fifth floors be prepared, and five good guards were requested from the escort company. The shopkeeper led his men to take care of every detail, from the spotless handrails to the priceless snacks, and went through it three times before finally waiting for the distinguished guest.

"Uncle Liang, does your family have more money or does my mother have more money?"

Wangshu and Ji Shou went ahead, Liang Ju and Qin Yunxiao followed behind, and they got off the carriage. The group followed the woman's steps tacitly. Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the second floor, the children's careless words caused the two "rich" people in front to look back.

Climbing the stairs is different from climbing the flat ground. Wangshu took Ji Shou's arm to borrow some strength to climb up. Liang Ju was still thinking about how to answer, so she turned around and continued walking.

"Yun Xiao, your father spends a lot."

She went out today wearing a slim-fitting high-waisted pink silk embroidered with hibiscus flowers. Only the cuffs and the hem were wide flared, with a well-balanced tightness, and more convenient for movement than a curved skirt. As she walked, the hem of the skirt swayed gently, and the hibiscus flowers swayed gracefully, making her as beautiful as a flower fairy.

After saying this, he held his breath and walked up. Liang Ju withdrew his gaze, fell behind three steps, and echoed with lowered eyes, "The general is rich, and gold and silver cannot compare with him."

Qin Yunxiao was confused. "Uncle Liang, I only asked about money. It seems that your family still has more money."

"Yun Xiao, Boss Liang has been in business for five generations, and his family is very wealthy."

Ji Shou explained the reason, "My father's father's father's father were all born with a silver spoon in their mouths."

After hearing the string of "fathers", Qin Yunxiao was confused again and started to mutter, "Dad's father is grandfather, grandfather's father is great-grandfather, great-grandfather's father is great-grandfather..."

When everyone on the fourth floor sat down one by one, the fat man was still counting on his fingers, confused, "So many old men..."

I simply moved a stool over and leaned against the window to watch the excitement downstairs.

He was a little breathless after climbing the stairs, so Wangshu took two sips of water to catch his breath. "Others start with one life, but Boss Liang is far ahead in terms of reincarnation."

Ji Shou was deeply touched at that moment, "That's right!"

Liang Ju looked like he couldn't stand it, "...Now I am begging for food under the two of you."

"I can't say it, I can't say it."

Seeing the young lady cross her legs and look relaxed, Ji Shou quickly relaxed, "Boss Liang, I can't stand it."

The young lady has a high status, naturally above Liang Ju, and Ji Shou is not as good as the head of the family.

"You two are not as good as children in enjoying life." The tea tasted bitter but sweet. There was a table full of food. Wangshu was casually choosing a crispy leek dumpling. Liang Ju did not dare to be careless. "Really? We are not talking about business today." He followed suit and chose a leek dumpling, and took the first bite.

Watching others eat, Ji Shou followed suit and selected a few dishes that the young lady might like to try first as a courtesy.

As for Qin Yunxiao at the window, he was not allowed out until he was well fed and well watered. There was a rule for him to go out of the house: he was not allowed to eat unless his parents asked him to.

It’s fine as long as you can come out. If you don’t give me food, I won’t eat it.

"This is better than yours."

The chive box is filled with chives, eggs, vermicelli and minced meat. The skin is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the filling is rich but not greasy.

Ji Shou came over to take a look. It was not much different from the ones made in his own restaurant, and the proportion of the fillings was also the same. "What's so good about it, Miss?"

"Seasoning?" Wangshu took another bite. "It's very fragrant."

There were many dishes on the table that were learned from Ji's Restaurant. Liang Jumian was very proud of the careful preparations made by his own restaurant, and said, "Let's try something else."

"We agreed not to discuss business. How difficult!"

Wangshu only regretted that his stomach was not cooperating. He really wanted to eat another piece. He joked to Ji Shou, "When we get back, we'll eat and take away his pot."

When you come across something good, who wouldn’t want to take it home quickly?

Ji Shou also noticed it and nodded frequently, "Boss Liang, you are really good!"

Liang Ju said frankly, "Every time Ji's Restaurant releases a new dish, I have bloating for several nights in a row."

"Hahaha!"

"The one who understands you the most and cares about you the most will always be your opponent!"

"Boss Ji is right! Come, try this red rice sausage. I just learned how to make it."

Ji Shou: ...

Wangshu:... "That's too much!" He took a piece and it was delicious!

"How can this be tolerated?" She glanced at Ji Shou, "Is your chef asking Boss Liang for money every month?"

Ji Shou's face turned red and dark, and then dark red. Liang Ju quickly denied it, "No."

Several people ate, drank and chatted.

Qin Yunxiao got tired of watching and ran over to hug his mother's neck, "Mom, can I get down?"

"Okay. Let Grandpa Tang accompany you."

They were having a good chat, so Wangshu didn't want to spoil the fun and tapped his mouth, "Half an hour."

Qin Yunxiao was overjoyed and covered his mother's face with his hands. Wangshu couldn't dodge and was kissed hard, half of her face felt like it was being blown. "Bo!"

He turned around and ran out, "Grandpa Tang, let's go!"

Ji Wangshu covered his face in pain and felt dizzy:...What a bullshit!

After letting go, half of his face turned red.

"This Yun Xiao!" Ji Shou had no way to deal with this man who was born with supernatural powers, so Liang Ju asked someone to bring him a cooling handkerchief to moisten his face.

The three of them continued to talk about the current military situation.

"Why did the uncle send Zheng Da this time?"

Ji Shou couldn't understand why Zheng Da was so cruel. He was a little afraid of hearing news about massacres. However, the Northwest Army was not weak, and it would be a bit of a daydream to really defeat the enemy.

"Let's fight a quick battle and end it quickly." Wangshu didn't actually ask, "I don't know either. Defending the city previously tied up a lot of troops, and the logistics almost brought Boss Liang down. And this year there's a severe drought. Sending someone capable and capable can save some rations."

Zheng Da must have been feeling suffocated after guarding Chang'an for so many years.

"General Zheng is quite ruthless," Liang Ju, who was holding up the food, interrupted, the tip of his tongue touching his front teeth. "He leads the troops and never retreats. I hope we can get good news soon. I can save two mouths for disaster relief in the winter."

The only two men the son-in-law could entrust Chang'an to were Zhang San and Zheng Da. Ji Shou, knowing all about this, poured tea for the man and said, "If you're not a ruthless person, you can't subdue Chang'an!"

"But the Northwest Army's territory is rich in water and grass, the city is as solid as a castle, gems are everywhere, and there are large mines!" Liang Ju listed the production areas of the gems and large mines one by one, "If we can conquer it..."

The voice stopped abruptly. It's impossible! This dream is like a waste!

Wangshu looked up at him, and Ji Shou said quickly, "You think too much!"

The Northwest is a tough place, and its defense is ironclad. While the fat is good, it's not enough to feed the tiger. It's better to conserve your energy and take it slow.
